Title: Starter Sheet Accountability Thread
Post by steelkings on Nov 6^th, 2006, 10:30am

This weeks starter sheet has been emailed to everyone. If it works out, I'll go again much the same next week. Please review the document and comment here.

Tony,
The Email address on the site came back undeliverable. Send me a pm with the correct one and I'll email you the sheet.

I just sent out an e-mail indicating the following...

Fellas,

Rob is correct about the "No Body" thing. When the cascading/ignoring (of illegitimate free-agent requests and outright mistakes) cashes out, i.e. nobody is left for the team, first name - "No", last name - "Body", just like that should be entered. I'd appreciate a "final" sheet that does it this way. Do yous still have Rob's?

I just received and subsequently dealt with [smiley=builder.gif] the following "kind,... but" private message Rob sent me:

Hey guys,

Steg, I know you're swamped :P so I hate to do this to ya, but there's a mistake on my roster for week 9. The results page has me starting KC defense, whom I actually dropped. I started Jac. As such, the results are changed and I should win the matchup with The Dogs of War.

Just want to let you know before you process the free agent pickups for week 10, in case it makes a difference.

Thanks bud! Hang in there!

This is not really directed at anyone as sk made sure to send his work out to everybody. So, this is to everybody. Guys,... this job has got to be done with EXTREME CARE (in both senses of the word "care", i.e. meticulously and "show me (how much) you care,"... if not about me as a person, about the league). Mistakes, no matter how small, can make significant double-work for me, and as Rob suggests if a mistake, again it can be rather small like this one, makes it through a week or two or more of free-agent processing, it can create an irreversible mess (which I, neurotic perfectionist [smiley=gonecrazy.gif] that I am, will probably blow loads (no, not that, [smiley=pudwhacker.gif] you gutterheads... ;) this...) of time trying my best to disabuse). On the other hand, I think this whole development could be a good thing... at this time. In light of recent circumstances (that led up to what we're having to deal with here), this may just "reinvigorate" an appreciation of all that goes into this place, not only in the front of the house but also and even more so behind the scenes,... just all that goes into running this league,... the GBRFLeagues, which, mind yous, is something I want to pursue running for a fee someday when I can (afford to) get the spreadsheets more automated. Even when Jamie was running the scoring sheets, I was still spending upwards of two hours a week on average processing you all's weekly transactions (trades and free-agents), doing all the HTML work and dealing with details and problems. Again, I'm just (re)painting the "bigger picture". This is time spent just on this league, forget all the big things I want to accomplish here.

I'm not sure how it happened. The sheet I forwarded to everyone had (Jac) as CP's starter. Do you mean CP actually started KC? Let me know what happened so I can learn from the mistake.

As it turns out, there's nothing to learn in this case, sk... I guess I messed it up,... further going to show you how much of a rushed-up nightmare this is for me. I'm just very frustrated by this whole situation... Anyway, good work, Todd. Thank you.

I'm still in the midst of a couple weeks of too much work and lots of travel, so I'm barely able to submit a lineup at this point. After week 12, I can take on the whole thing if necessary.
